SIG CROSS Carbon Barrel...

[jmo]

Exactly what I want

I don't think you'll be disappointed. The groups below were consecutive groups .3 grains apart in an ocw with 150 ELDX. Both were sub quarter moa. I'm loving this new barrel and chambering.

Love to see it! this has been my experience with the 6.5 barrel and 140gr ELDM ammo. - matt

Well hello!

Found a great break down on the barrel/extension removal process, with pictures, here if anyone wants to see what's entailed. - matt

Do we have any intel on the 277 Fury release/any Sendero barrels that will be available? About to pick up a Cross in 6.5CM

I just sent an email to check on the reamer status. If we can get one finally, I will be ordering a handful in. Probably will be 16in sendero lite, 1:7 or 1:75 twist.

If that doesn't work for you all, what length, twist, etc, would everyone like? After talking with friends at SIG, they say this setup is the sweet spot.

I'm guessing folks will want 20in barrels to win speed wars. I'm good with what your planning!

Any availability update on the barrel extension? Really like the 6.5 barrel but was hoping for the option to change quickly without having to re do spacing. I know the last posting on the topic was only about 10 days ago, but didn't know if we were likely looking at a weeks or months type timeline.

no update yet. i will post any updates as they happen. With the current material, staffing, etc.. shortages it is slow going.

From initial talks with gunsmiths and some folks at SIG, it was not recommended. This is because there isn't a lot of "meat to work with.' Looking around the edges of the bolt face, you can see it is already relatively thin. A replcement bolt face is a better option i think and something we are also looking into. I'd love to put a 7SAUM in these things.. - Matt

If a replacement bolt face becomes available for a larger case head and subsequently bigger cartridges I'll buy a cross and barrel swap it immediately. Theres always the magazines to contend with too... staying tuned in to this thread

We're working on replacement bolt heads actually, but it'll be a ways out. the Extensions are top priority at the moment.

Has anyone seen a 277fury cross? I'm curious if the bolt head or barrel extension are different than the 6.5 or .308.

Extension update: I held the first 3d printed prototype in my hand today. Checking a few more things and then will have a few prototypes made from steel for testing. - Matt

Have you guys thought about making the "barrel assembly tool", as Sig calls it? Others might call it an action wrench. Would be great to use Schnee's as a one-stop shop for Cross barrel swaps once you guys get the extensions too.

We did, but now there are some guys out there making and selling them. Mainly on the "Sig Cross Owners" facebook page. I picked one up from a member on there. I think they should become readily available soon. - Matt

Any update on barrel availability?

Anything specific? We have quite a few incoming. Maybe another month or so.
